It is currently unclear what role The Lawnmower Man's Fahey will play on the series, which also stars Alex O'Loughlin and Scott Caan.

The 59-year-old actor's past TV work includes roles on Chuck, Criminal Minds and a recent guest appearance on new NBC drama Revolution, while 1994's Wyatt Earp and 2010's Machete number among his film credits.

Fahey follows fellow Lost veteran Terry O'Quinn in landing a role on Hawaii Five-0.

Daniel Dae Kim has also voiced his desire to have Henry Ian Cusick - who played Desmond on Lost - appear on the series.

Hawaii Five-0's third season continues on Mondays at 10/9c on CBS and will air on Sky1 in the UK in January 2013.
